Fatigue, Nausea. Normal Thyroid Test. No Appetite, Gagging, Burning Shoulder Blade. Unexplained Weight Loss

I have always had digestive issues. Recently, within the last 4 months I have not felt well after having an URI. I just never got better. I started feeling fatigue, nauseated, etc. I had blood work done for thyroid and even though numbers are within range, I had all systems of being hypo. Doctor put me on natural thyroid meds as I am a natural type of person. Since taking, I have lost about 12 pounds, which I really didn't have to lose because I never really had the symptom of gaining weight. I was very low in iron so am on an iron supplement now too. A natural one of course. I have no appetite, always feel like I have to vomit and gag a lot. I started this back with the URI though. I have burning in my left shoulder blade at times. I belch all the time which I have done for a long time too, just seems like it is getting worse. Is it the thryoid meds doing this or what. I just had more blood work done on Friday as my gyno was concerned about my symptoms so she is doing blood work on pancreas, liver, the whole shot. I am very concerned primarly because of the weight loss that is unexplained. I don't eat a lot because I have such a full feeling to begin with and then if I eat too much I feel sick. any suggestions.
